The bob of a pendulum of length $l$ is pulled aside from its equilibrium position through an angle $\theta$ and then released. The bob will then pass through its equilibrium position with speed $v$,where $v$ equals

  • A
    $\sqrt{2gl \sin \theta}$
  • B
    $\sqrt{2gl(1 - \sin \theta)}$
  • C
    $\sqrt{2gl(1 - \cos \theta)}$
  • D
    $\sqrt{2gl(1 + \sin \theta)}$

$A$ girl is swinging on a swing in the sitting position. What will be the effect on the time period of the swing if she stands up?

The time period of a simple pendulum of length $L$ is $T_1$. The time period of a uniform rod of the same length $L$ suspended from one end and oscillating in a vertical plane is $T_2$. The amplitude of oscillation is small in both cases. Then the ratio $\frac{T_1}{T_2}$ is:

$A$ simple pendulum has a time period $T_1$. The point of suspension is now moved upward according to the equation $y = kt^2$,where $k = 1\,m/s^2$. If the new time period is $T_2$,then the ratio $\frac{T_1^2}{T_2^2}$ will be:

Which vector in the figures best represents the acceleration of a pendulum mass at the intermediate point in its swing?

$A$ simple pendulum is hanging from the ceiling of a lift. When the lift is at rest,the time period of the pendulum is $T$. If the resultant acceleration becomes $g/4$,then the new time period of the pendulum is: (in $, T$)
